Summary The winter wheat varieties Starke and Cappelle Desprez and the spring wheat Chinese Spring were analysed for structural chromosome rearrangements that resulted in the formation of multivalents in F1 hybrids. The analyses were carried out using hybrids involving euploids, monosomic and ditelosomic stocks, and double-monotelodisomic constructs. The study confirmed that Cappelle Desprez differs from Chinese Spring in a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 5B and 7B (Riley et al. 1967); a translocation involving chromosomes 3B and 3D could not be verified. Furthermore, the analysis showed that Starke differs from Chinese Spring in a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 7A and 7D. Both translocations have a coefficient of multivalent realisation of about 0.84. Further multivalents in euploid Starke, in euploid and some aneuploid stocks of Cappelle Desprez, and in euploid as well as various types of aneuploid hybrids between all three varieties could nearly all be explained hypothesizing that chromosome 2B of both Starke and Cappelle Desprez is a duplication-deficiency chromosome. In the hypothesis a part of the long arm of 2B is missing and replaced by a duplicated part of the long arm of chromosome 2D. The multivalents of this rearrangement showed an average coefficient of realisation of about 0.09.Sven Ellerström died in December 1985 相似文献

Evidence is presented that multiple forms of cyclic nucleotide phophodiesterase (PDE) activity chromatographically separated from the soluble fraction of bovine hypothalamus are co-eluted with multiple forms of 5-nucleotidase (5N) activity. The enzymes could not be resolved from each other by anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-TSK; by affinity chromatography on phenyl-, blue-, concanavalin A-, 5 AMP-sepharose, cAMP-silica gel; or by gel filtration on sephacryl S-200. The catalytic activities were found to be associated with the tetrameric, dimeric, and monomeric forms of the enzymes. The molecular weights determined by gel filtration or by SDS-gel electrophoresis were 220, 114, and 57 kDa, respectively. Kinetic analysis revealed that the first-order rate constant for 5 AMP hydrolysis measured in the reactions: cAMP5AMPadenosine was 100 times higher than that in the reaction: 5AMPadenosine. Thus, functional interrelation between PDE and 5N was expressed in drastic acceleration of the consecutive reactions: cAMP 5AMPadenosine. The results confirm the conclusion about the existence of a multienzyme system involving PDE and 5N or of a single bifunctional enzyme in brain tissue.This revised version was published online in June 2005 with corrections to the author name Gurvits. 相似文献

Inhibition of nitrification in forest soil by monoterpenes 总被引:10,自引:1,他引:9
Nitrate production was detected in untreated soil of a Norway spruce (Picea abies L.) stand only after clear-cutting the stand. The aim of this study was to determine whether allelochemical inhibition of nitrification by monoterpenes played any role in inhibiting nitrification in the stand. Therefore, soils from a clear-cut plot and from a forest plot were studied. In the field, monoterpenes (mostly - and -pinenes), measured by soil microair diffusive samplers, were intensively produced in the forest plot, but not in the clear-cut plot. In the laboratory, soil samples taken from the forest plot produced only small amounts of monoterpenes, indicating that monoterpenes were mainly produced by the roots and not to great extent by the soil microbial population. The effect of a mixture of monoterpenes (seven major monoterpenes detected in the field) on net nitrification, net N mineralization and denitrification activities of soil from the clear cut plot, and on carbon mineralization of soils from both the forest and clear-cut plots, was studied in the laboratory. In both aerobic incubation experiments and in soil suspensions with excess NH4-N, nitrification was inhibited by exposure to the vapours of monoterpenes at similar concentrations at which they had been detected in forest plot. This indicates direct inhibition of nitrification by monoterpenes. Exposure to monoterpenes did not affect denitrification. However, it increased respiration activity of both soils. This could also indicate indirect inhibition of nitrification by monoterpenes, due to immobilization of mineral N. Thus it seems that monoterpenes could play a role in inhibiting nitrification in the forest soil. 相似文献

The effects of select monoterpenes on nitrogen (N) mineralization and nitrification potentials were determined in four separate laboratory bioassays. The effect of increasing monoterpene addition was an initial reduction in NO3
–-N production (nitrification inhibition), followed by a reduction in the sum of NH4
+-N and NO3
–-N (inhibition of net N mineralization and net immobilization at high monoterpene additions. Monoterpenes could produce this pattern by inhibiting nitrification, reducing net N mineralization, enhancing immobilization of NO3
–-N relative to NH4
+-N, and/or stimulating overall net immobilization of N by carbon-rich material.Initial monoterpene concentrations in the assay soils were about 5% of the added amount and were below detection after incubation in most samples.Potential N mineralization-immobilization, nitrification, and soil monoterpene concentrations were determined by soil horizon for four collections from a ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) stand in New Mexico. Concentrations of monoterpenes declined exponentially with soil depth and varied greatly within a horizon. Monoterpene content of the forest floor was not correlated with forest floor biomass. Net N mineralization was inversely correlated with total monoterpene content of all sampled horizons. Nitrification was greatest in the mineral soil, intermediate in the F-H horizon, and never occurred in the L horizon. Nitrification in the mineral soil was inversely correlated with the amount of monoterpenes in the L horizon that contain terminal unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds (r
2 = 0.37, P 0.01). This pattern in the field corresponded to the pattern shown in the laboratory assays with increasing monoterpene additions. 相似文献

Forest structure and tree species distribution in relation to topography-mediated heterogeneity of soil nitrogen and light at the forest floor 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We investigated the patterns of soil nitrogen (N) and forest floor light availability, forest structure and tree species distribution along a topographic gradient on a 200-m mountain slope in a cool-temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest in Japan. Rates of soil N mineralization and nitrification decreased from lower to upper slope positions, revealing that N availability decreased up the slope. Maximum tree height and above-ground biomass were greater on the lower than the upper parts of the slope. Canopy openness, an index of light availability at the forest floor, increased up the slope. Tree species could be placed into three groups according to their distribution patterns on the slope. Ridge and valley species were distributed on the upper and lower parts of the slope, respectively, whereas uniform species were distributed over the entire slope. Topography-mediated resource gradients of soil N and light may be important determinants of species distribution patterns and forest regeneration, and the results of this study imply that the determinants of the regeneration process differ between the lower and upper parts of a slope. The former may be relatively light limited and the latter may be soil N limited. Valley species may have a greater ability to compete for light, whereas ridge species have a greater ability to compete for soil N. The broad distribution of uniform species probably reflects an ability to effectively compete for both light and soil N. 相似文献

To examine the influence of microbial carbon (C) availability on the internal soil nitrogen (N) cycles under moder and mull forest floor types within the same slope sequence, surface mineral soils (0–5cm depth) taken at upper (moder-type forest floor) and lower (mull-type forest floor) positions on a slope in a Cryptomeria japonica D. Don plantation were incubated for 300days. During the incubation, changes in net and gross N transformations, the organic C and N pools, and microbial respiration were monitored. Despite relatively small differences in net N mineralization in both soils, very rapid rates of gross N transformations were found in mull soil during the initial 15days of the experiment. A rapid net nitrification occurred after days 150 and 100 in moder and mull soils, respectively, presumably because of decreased microbial C availability. However, a rapid net nitrification also occurred in the mull soil during the initial 15days when microbial C availability was high, and gross nitrification was detected in both soils, except at day 0 in the moder soil. Changes in gross N transformations and in organic C and N pools over the experiment suggested that the start of rapid net nitrification might be influenced not only by microbial C availability, but also by the microbial availability of N relative to C. 相似文献

Summary A family with one homozygote and three heterozygotes for hemoglobin Stanleyville II (78 AsnLys) has been analyzed by -globin gene mapping. The pattern of restriction fragments with the enzymes BamHI and BglII demonstrated that the globin variant is associated with a 3.7-kb -globin gene deletion. 相似文献

Preliminary attempts to make retrospective studies of N balances and water stress in forest fertilization experiments by analyzing changes in the abundances of 15N and 13C, respectively, are discussed. Most evidence is from the Swedish Forest Optimum Nutrition Experiments, which have been running for two decades. Annual additions of N have been given either alone or in combination with other elements, notably P and K, every third year. Processes leading to loss of N, e.g. volatilization of ammonia, nitrification followed by leaching or denitrification, and denitrification alone, discriminate against the heavy isotope 15N. A correlation was found between fractional losses of added N and the change in 15N () during 19 years in current needles in a Scots pine forest, irrespective of source of N. Isotope effects were larger on urea than on ammonium nitrate plots (2 as compared to 9 15N ()) because of ammonia volatilization and higher rates of nitrification. They developed gradually over time, which opens possibilities to analyse the development of N saturation. However, the analysis may be confounded by shifts in 15N abundance of fertilizer N. In another trial, N isotope effects could be seen in both plants and soils 10 years after the last fertilization; they were smaller in soils because of a large pretreatment memory effect, but we expect them to persist there for decades.The enzyme RuBisCo discriminates strongly against the heavy isotope 13C during photosynthesis, but this effect becomes less expressed as stomata close because of water stress. The supply of N may also affect the 13C () via effects on rates of photosynthesis, and the source of N may have an influence directly via non-RubisCo carboxylations, and indirectly via effects on water use efficiency. In a trial with Norway spruce, the effect of N fertilization on the 13C () of current needles was strongly correlated with production and weakly so with foliar biomass a dry year, but not a wet year. This suggested that these variations are primarily related to induced differences in the balance between supply and demand for water. Hence, studies of {au13}C abundance can disentangle the role of water as such from its effects on mineralization of N and flow of N. 相似文献

The neural mechanism of habituation of the crayfish lateral giant-mediated escape reaction was analyzed electrophysiologically and pharmacologically. Upon repeated stimulation of tailfan afferents (at 0.2–1 Hz) lateral giant showed rapid habituation and failed to spike. Upon low-intensity sensory stimulation, the lateral giant responded with two subthreshold excitatory post-synaptic potentials, the and components. A third component, the ' component, was discriminated at the boundary of excitatory post-synaptic potentials between the late and early components with stimulation just subthreshold or suprathreshold to evoke lateral giant spikes. This ' component increased in amplitude with hyperpolarizing current injected into the lateral giants, although the amplitude of both the and components remained constant. Furthermore, bath application of the nicotinic antagonist, d-tubocurarine caused a rapid reduction in the amplitude of the ' component while the amplitude of the component was reduced gradually and that of the component remained unchanged. Single-hair stimulation indicated that some sensory afferents made direct connections with the lateral giants mediated by chemical synapses and form the potential of ' component of the lateral giants. Since lateral giant inactivation was associated with a reduction of excitatory post-synaptic potential amplitude of the ' component, connection from these afferents could contribute, at least in part, to lateral giant habituation.Abbreviations EPSP excitatory post-synaptic potential - LG lateral giant 相似文献

Summary Much ecological theory assumes that the number of species that can coexist (by species packing) is limited, because competitive exclusion occurs when any pair of species within a guild is too similar — species saturation or niche limitation. If such niche limitation occurs, the proportion of species in each guild should be relatively constant — guild proportionality. This concept is applied to the guilds represented by strata in a forest. A method is produced, and used to examine a New Zealand temperate rain forest. Most strata showed no deviation from a null model of no niche limitation, i.e. no tendency to guild proportionality. The proportion of lianes was more variable than in the null model, tending to be inversely related to the proportion of epiphytes, Canopy tree proportion was significantly more constant than in the null model, but this could be interpreted as a limit caused by the size of a canopy tree individual. 相似文献

Summary HTC cells are able to convert -linolenic acid into higher homologs by desaturating and elongating reactions. When the cells were cultured in a Krebs Ringer bicarbonate solution (fasted cells) a decrease in both biosynthetic reactions took place. Refeeding the cells with Swim's 77 medium without glucose enhanced the biosynthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids from -linolenic acid family, but when glucose was added to the medium, -linolenic acid was preferably elongated rather than converted into eicose-pentaenoic acid.The ultrastructural study revealed HTC cells with a simple cytoplasmic organization, showing little evidence of their origin from hepatocytes. The cells cultured in a complete medium appeared well preserved and were similar to those fasted for 12 hours and refed for another 12 hours using Swim's 77 medium without serum. The amount of glucose in the medium plays a role in preserving the cell structure. This effect does not occur if glucose is added in the absence of aminoacids and vitamins. 相似文献

The calcareous prairies of Louisiana have been threatened by the encroachment of woody plants, primarily eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana). The restoration and management of these rare plant communities require a thorough understanding of the soils supporting them. The knowledge of whether eastern red cedar encroachment has altered these soils is also of interest. We studied the depth distribution, at contrasting vegetation types (prairie, transition, forest) and landscape positions, of 15N, total N, organic C, C/N ratio, Ca, Mg, K and pH of three relict prairie-forest associations in north central Louisiana, USA. The effect of vegetation type was significant for soil 15N and Ca. Plant leaf samples from prairie, transition, and forest showed similar 15N signals, and mean values ranged between –1.6 and –1.1. The order of soil 15N enrichment of the 0–10cm depth relative to corresponding leaves was forest soil> transition soil>prairie soil. The forest soil was significantly enriched with 15N compared with the prairie soil and transition soil. Except for C/N ratio, all the soil properties significantly decreased with depth while 15N increased with depth. Significant differences in C/N ratio, Ca and Mg were associated with landscape position. The change in soil pH due to woody encroachment was restricted to the 0–10cm depth. The results suggest that the prairie soil was distinctly different from the forest soil and that the vegetation at transition (encroaching woody plants) was altering the surface soil pH towards forest-like conditions. 相似文献

Natural abundance of 15N in soils along forest-to-pasture chronosequences in the western Brazilian Amazon Basin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We examined the natural abundance of 15N in soil profiles along two chronosequences in the western Brazilian Amazon Basin state of Rondônia, to investigate possible mechanisms for changes to soil nitrogen sources and transformations that occur as a result of land use. One chronosequence consisted of forest and 3-, 5- and 20-year-old pasture, the other of forest and 8- and 20-year-old pasture. The 15N values of surface soil and soil to 1 m depth in the native forest ranged from 9.8 to 13.6 and were higher than reported for temperate forest soils. Fractionation associated with nitrification and denitrification and selective losses of 15N-depleted nitrate, could potentially result in a strong enrichment of nitrogen in soil organic matter over the time scale of soil development in highly weathered tropical soils. Pasture surface soils were 1–3, depleted in 15N compared with forest soils. Lower 15N values in 20-year-old pastures is consistent with greater cumulative inputs of 15N-depleted atmospheric-derived nitrogen, fixed by free-living bacteria associated with planted pasture grasses in older pastures, or differential plant utilization of soil inorganic N pools with different 15N values. The pattern of 15N values following conversion of forest to agricultural use differs from the pattern in the temperate zone, where pasture or cultivated soils are typically more enriched in 15N than the forest soils from which they were derived. 相似文献

Spatial patterns of soil nitrogen (N) transformations were examined using geostatistical analysis in three adjacent stands with different fire history (0, 10 and 35 years since the latest fire, respectively) in a dry tropical forest in Thailand. A larger pool of total inorganic N and a faster rate of N mineralization were recorded in the stand with longer fire prevention. At the spatial scale analyzed, the proportion of spatially dependent variance to the total variance of N mineralization and nitrification increased from 0.39 to 0.73, and from 0.40 to 0.77, respectively, with the time since the latest fire. The spatial autocorrelation ranges of N mineralization and nitrification decreased from 9.0 to 3.28 m, and 9.0 to 2.77 m, respectively, with the time since the latest fire. These results suggested that fire history affected not only the level of available soil N, but also the spatial heterogeneity of soil N transformations, presumably due to the difference in plant influences on soil. 相似文献

Invasion of north temperate forest soils by exotic earthworms has the potential to alter microbial biomass and activity over large areas of North America. We measured the distribution and activity of microbial biomass in forest stands invaded by earthworms and in adjacent stands lacking earthworms in sugar maple-dominated forests in two locations in New York State, USA: one with a history of cultivation and thin organic surface soil horizons (forest floors) and the other with no history of cultivation and a thick (3–5 cm) forest floor. Earthworm invasion greatly reduced pools of microbial biomass in the forest floor and increased pools in the mineral soil. Enrichment of the mineral soil was much more marked at the site with thick forest floors. The increase in microbial biomass carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in the mineral soil at this site was larger than the decrease in the forest floor, resulting in a net increase in total soil profile microbial biomass in the invaded plots. There was an increase in respiration in the mineral soil at both sites, which is consistent with a movement of organic matter and microbial biomass into the mineral soil. However, N-cycle processes (mineralization and nitrification) did not increase along with respiration. It is likely that the earthworm-induced input of C into the mineral soil created a microbial sink for N, preventing an increase in net mineralization and nitrification and conserving N in the soil profile. 相似文献

Gross and net nitrogen (N) ammonification and nitrification were measured in soils from an uncut and recently cut upland and peatland conifer stand in northwestern Ontario, Canada. Rates of gross total inorganic N immobilization were similar to gross mineralization, resulting in low net mineralization rates in soils from all four upland and peatland conifer stands. Gross ammonification rates were variable but similar in soils from uncut and cut peatland hollows (18–19mgNkg–1day–1) and upland forest floor soils (14–19mgNkg–1day–1). Gross ammonium (
) immobilization rates were also variable but similar to ammonification rates. Median gross nitrification rates were within 0–2mgNkg–1day–1 in soils from all four upland and peatland cut and uncut stands, although rates were consistently higher for the soils from the cut stands. Large variability in gross nitrification rates were observed in peatland soils, however the highest gross nitrification rates were measured in saturated peatland soils. Net rates remained low in the soils from all four stands due to high nitrate (
) immobilization and very fast
turnover (<0.2 day). Our results suggest that potential
losses may be negated by high immobilization in uncut and cut boreal forest stands. This study reveals the potential for the interaction of N production and consumption processes in regulating N retention in upland and peatland conifer forests, and the resilience of the boreal forest to disturbance. 相似文献

Net N-mineralization and nitrification from soil organic matter and from vegetable crop residues (leaf-blades of cauliflower and stems of red cabbage) were measured at 4 temperatures during aerobic incubation in the laboratory. C-mineralization from leaf-blades of cauliflower was monitored at 3 different temperatures. N-mineralization from soil organic matter was best described by zero order kinetics N(t)=kt whereas N- and C-mineralization from the crop residues were described by single first order kinetics. Stems of red cabbage mineralized much more slowly than leaf-blades of cauliflower. S-shaped functions were fitted to the relationship between the rate constants of both C and N-mineralization and temperature. The rate parameter of the S-shaped function reflects the temperature dependence of the mineralization rate k. The parameter for N-mineralization of the stem material (=5.36) was significantly higher than for the leaf-blades (=3.38), indicating that there is a strong interaction between temperature and resistance to degradation in the soil. N-mineralization from soil organic matter was least sensitive to temperature (=2.63). Temperature dependence of nitrification was not significantly different from mineralization over the temperature range considered. Rate constants for C-mineralization of cauliflower leaf-blades were higher than for N-mineralization, but the temperature dependence of the rate constants was not significantly different for both processes. 相似文献

Summary 13C values were measured for 45 Poaceae species collected in the northern Sahara desert, at the foot of the Saharan Atlas. The results indicate a clear relationship between carbon isotope discrimination and phytogeographical distribution of the grasses. Mediterranean species predominantly had 13C values indicating the C3 pathway of photosynthesis. By contrast, nearly all species belonging to the Saharo-Arabian and /or Sudanian group showed a C4 like carbon isotope composition. Leaf material of two species, Lygeum spartum and Stipa tenacissima, had 13C values in the region of-20, i.e. intermediate between the mean 13C values of C3 and C4 plants. However, additional speciments of both these grasses obtained from a different source (herbarium of the Hebrew University, Jerusalem) yielded a C3 like carbon isotope composition. 相似文献

Summary Nitrogen and phosphorus limitations to growth are common in many loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) stands. Interactions of these nutrients may complicate interpretation of foliar nutrient analysis for predicting response to forest fertilization. Proportions of foliar nutrient concentrations (and the changes in these proportions following fertilization) were examined in 36 semi-mature loblolly pine plantations in the southeastern United States. Mean proportions of nutrient concentrations (NPKCaMg) for non-fertilized stands were 1009.336.517.29.2. Potassium and phosphorus were higher. Nitrogen fertilization generally decreased the PN ratio and enhanced growth, indicating a nitrogen deficiency in most stands under study. Additions of nitrogen and phosphorus together yielded a significant increase in the PN ratio. Effects of fertilization effects on other nutrient concentration ratios were also examined.Paper No. 9401 of the Journal Series of the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service, Raleigh, NC 27695. 相似文献

Combined heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification in Thiosphaera pantotropha and other bacteria 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
Reports of the simultaneous use of oxygen and denitrification by different species of bacteria have become more common over the past few years. Research with some strains (e.g. Thiosphaera pantotropha) has indicated that there might be a link between this aerobic denitrification and a form of nitrification which requires rather than generates energy and is therefore known as heterotrophic nitrification. This paper reviews recent research into heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification, and presents a preliminary model which, if verified, will provide at least a partial explanation for the simultaneous occurrence of nitrification and denitrification in some bacteria. 相似文献
